I dallied with that Tausig Ballade in a previous life. Never was any good with it though, and haven't touched in ages. It's damned hard, but very effective if you can toss if off with the required power and menace. It's nothing though compared with Tausig's Halka Fantasy in the same book. That one gives old Liszt a run for his money. Quite an underrated composer, Tausig.

presto furiouso throughout with 16th notes running up and down, 8th note octave jumps in the left hand whilst playing 16ths in the right. Tremolos played quickly but quietly..............a receipe for disaster or one titantic standing ovation!
